Pajaro Valley Quilt Association
A quilt association that encourages the art of quilt making.
Nancy will share her insights on her own design process in a trunk show that features some of her award winning quilts, a selection of quilts from her six books, and quilts made with fabrics from her own collections.
Please join us for a fabulous trunk show/lecture entitled “Quilts & Their Stories,” by our very own immensely talented Iris Frank.
Joy-Lily is a silk painter, fabric dyer, fabric printer and quilt maker. She is inspired by the natural world: shells, flowers, and leaves offer endless choices of colors and forms to celebrate. She believes we are all born artists and that some of us may have had our creativity stifled at an early age. Joy-Lily will share her quilts and quilt journey with us in her lecture at our June meeting.
Combination of quilts and power-point. See how fabric selections can totally change the look of quilts. How a punch of the right color can make your quilts come to life. Borders or not??
Mid-Century Modern Quilts lecture: The 1950s through 1970s produced some fabulous design that still remains current today, but did mid-century modern styles influence quilting? While pointing out period quilt artists who did work in an identifiably MCM style, the lecture also considers why there weren’t more of them, and how I look to other areas of mid-century design to bring the flavor of this exciting period to my quilts. The accompanying slide show will show historical quilts and other source material, while my MCM-influenced quilts will be presented in trunk-show style.
